By tapping into the random fluctuations of the carbon atoms that make up graphene sheets, the scientists can
generate an alternating current strong enough to indefinitely power a wristwatch.
An engine accessory which
generates alternating current (AC).
Not exact matches
When a metal is in the presence of
alternating magnetic fields (AMFs), electrical
currents are produced on the metal, which
generate heat.
A power inverter can make the conversion to AC, but a typical inverter with the required capabilities contains about 300 pounds of material: a computer to change the frequency of
alternating current as motor speed changes, massive switches, and cooling equipment to dissipate the heat
generated by the heavy
current.
This electricity can be converted to
alternating current (AC) power for use in the building or if more power is
generated, the surplus will be exported to the National Grid.
Alternators
generate AC (
Alternating Current) which is then converted into pulsating DC (Direct
Current).
The F3DM has two
alternating current electric motors, a 50 - kilowatt unit that drives the wheels and a 25 - kilowatt helper that can send power to the wheels or
generate electricity through regenerative braking.
An
alternating current in the transmitter coil
generates a magnetic field which induces a voltage in the receiver coil.
In addition to the rooftop panels, the project includes inverters to convert electricity
generated by the modules from direct to
alternating current, as well as utility - grade meters with remote monitoring capabilities.
